1. Start-up and adjustment: The clock made a clean impression processed the same for removal from the carton. The display is large and well structured. It is operated via four easily accessible pushbuttons. Once you get used to the operation via short and long push button action, the clock can operate fairly intuitive. The settings menu is well-structured and understandable here for data such as date of birth and body weight to calculate calories burned and workout areas are entered. The clock offers three training areas: fat burning, Fit (70-80% of maximum heart rate) and individually. The chest strap is comfortable and works reliably (had yet to observe no dropouts).
2. Training mode: After Attaching the chest belt, it takes about 1 minute until the clock shows a pulse. In training mode starts (and pauses) is available from your finger. Stopwatch Current heart rate and duration are always displayed on the screen, in the line below can cycle through different displays, are of particular interest, the average and maximum heart rate as well as a bar graph that classifies the current pulse in the training area.
3. Pulse "alarm": The aforementioned pulse reading I find it very convenient to warn the clock with two acoustic signals (can be switched off), when the pulse from the training area goes out, and even if it is within limits. So should not constantly look at the clock, in order to check his pulse. In addition, displays a small indicator arrow, whether to increase or decrease the pulse.
4. round function: The clock may stop and display this function I do not use but also lap times and values.
Overall, I'm with the clock more than satisfied and it can no longer think away from my training program. Buy recommendation!
